The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries will reduce crude shipments this month as demand from Asia slackens, according to tanker-tracker Oil Movements.

Loadings will drop 1.1 percent to 23.55 million barrels a day in the four weeks to Feb. 5 from 23.8 million barrels in the period to Jan. 8, Oil Movements said today in a report. It’s the fourth straight month-on-month decline shown in the consultant’s weekly figures. The data exclude Ecuador and Angola.
